Besides its functional and home decor implications, African furniture can also be dramatic symbolic expressions of messages and guiding principles. These messages and principles act as a fabric for the peaceful existence of the tribe or the society as a whole. Each African furniture piece is designed to accentuate traditional values and purpose. For example, the “Gye Nyame” stool furniture represents the omnipotence of God. These African tables are typically found in the Homes of Kings and tribal chiefs. The African furniture pieces that you will find in our store are dramatic symbolic portrayals of the artistic nature of the African people in general. With close attention to the individual pieces it’s possible to decipher the positive values that each piece portrays.
